Sunday Cycling a civilised society

The Athletic Club have started doing a series of Sunday group rides aimed at some of us who are not comfortable group cycling and also want to improve their cycling endurance. I went on my first one this morning and have discovered a wonderful new world. I usually only ride in small groups but found the miles just soared by as we chatted away (once various bike problems and punctures were sorted out). I have always been a bit wary of joining a cycle club but after this I'm sorely tempted.

One important thing I learned today - good kit is a lifesaver. I just bought a Winter bib and jacket from SPUIK and I cant believe how much more comfortable (and dry) I am!!

I agree about the good kit. I do not ride a bike but I have invested in some good running shoes and waterproofs this year which have been well used on my weeks in London.

I have also made a bit of an effort with my runniing kit this year. MAkes a big difference running round when its cold or even worse WET!
